Bug#491669: tasksel: Please add kpowersave to KDE laptop task



Package: tasksel
Severity: wishlist
Version: 2.74.2

With kdeutils 4:3.5.9-2 the depends from kdeutils on "klaptopdaemon | 
kpowersave" has been changed to a _recommends_ on kpowersave alone. 
Reason is that kloptopdaemon does not work correctly with current kernels 
(uses no longer available info from /proc).

Although kpowersave probably is suitable for desktop systems too (e.g. for 
automatic standby after X time idle), I'm not sure that it should be 
installed on them by default as kpowersave will get loaded automatically 
if installed (can be disabled).

However, it should be installed by default on laptops. I don't think 
separate laptop tasks have been created yet for the different desktops, 
but this would seem to be a good reason to create a KDE laptop task.
If not, then it should probably be added to the KDE desktop task.
